Govinda 03:15
GOVINDA „Govinda! Feeling your separation, i am considering a moment to be like twelve years or more. Tears are flowing from my eyes like torrents of rain, and i am feeling all vacant in the world in your absence.” Śri Śri Śiksastaka 7 Govinda, Govinda, Govinda, Govinda! I must destroy this wall, that blocks me everyday Break through for my persoal shell My attention must be concerned to clean of all the dirt Now I please for Your mercy And I want to see your from badly and deep inside My God you makes me brokenhearted by not bein present before me Your protection is what I need Please, crush my false ego, crush it I want to fallow you, because You are the Absolute I know is truth, so why I cannot feel You? There is nothing more valuable than Your Holy Name!

BUTCHER’S KNIFE When I look at the slaughter farms where animals are lined up to butchers Where the corpses of the tormented victims brought Passed the crowdsthat glance with no shame or discust at the transported screaming cows I regret that there are so very few of us in the world willing, to change this! Let no carnivore count on my acceptation Eating meaty foods i consider a mistake It’s hard for me to find any tolerance in my heart When there’s life and suffering of animals at stake So far it’s only boycott, it’s not a revolution yet But we’ll do everything in our might, to let the buther’s knives rust Freedom for animals!

BE STRAIGHT FOR US Both you and me, we act the same rules But your attitude put us on a different sides How long have you been shouting no And you declared the war to the tolerance You missed one right, somewhere on the way Right to the freedom of mind Both you and me, we act the same rules But your words put us on different sides You say, that my ways are bad, because there is a place for God in them You’re screaming that in this movement there is no place for religion Why don’t you let me to talk how do I live? Be straight for us Open your minds I’m asking you with my friends, who are here with me today To do it! Why did you stop to be yourself And let the shell of ignorance to cover you? Today you don’t tolerance my belives – tomorrow time will come for others Today religions – tomorrow holocaust Don’t spit on my face After all, we are brothers Your stance closes me in a solidary place Be straight for us...

CLOSER TO THE END You think you’re a controler, because your money in the bank is groving with every moment, but death has also a high interest rate You neglect the option, that you will be next Return to reality – unfortunately it is full of pain But the truth is, they will sound for you The bells of death Those bells toll for you The bells of death From day to day with more intensity You invest in life insurance You think it will protect you You think you control the situation, That you control even life and death Return to reality – unfortunately it is full of pain, But the truth is that you will meet your end The bells... With every breath With every while With every heartbeat Closer to the end There is no escape... There is no escape... There is no escape...

I've Found 04:07
I’VE FOUND You always have to change my life Whatever I do–you try the hardest to destroy it But today I want to tell you something new From now on you words don’t mean anything I sit in my room and I’m calm Because I know that every one of the X’s on my hands is well drown Today I know, that I will never break any of the rules For you, for anybody... I have found, what I’ve been looking for Friends who think the same You will not destroy my identity now True knowledge = peace of mind
